TBOUMTBDK Chapter 41

Chapter 41: Chapter 41 – Close Your Eyes and Part Your Lips to Welcome

They said they would sleep together, but it wasn’t very late when Yún Xiá decided not to go to bed immediately.

He pulled the Demon Lord away from the inn, not allowing the Demon Lord to transform into the appearance of the Holy Ruler, but using his original appearance.

This way, others wouldn’t remember him, but Yún Xiá could see his real face.

They walked hand-in-hand on the street, Yún Xiá setting aside everything, happily strolling and chattering endlessly to the Demon Lord.

The Demon Lord’s gaze was almost always on him, a smile on his lips, looking unusually relaxed.

Without a purpose, just walking and looking around randomly could be so happy, so enjoyable, reminding Yún Xiá of the first day they arrived, when the Demon Lord suddenly got angry halfway through their stroll.

He couldn’t help but break away from the Demon Lord’s hand in the crowd, walking in front of him and staring intently.

The Demon Lord sensed what he wanted to say, lowered his head and said gently, “What is it?”

Yún Xiá liked his expression of looking down at him immensely, suddenly raising both hands in front of him, palms facing each other, leaving a space in between, and said, “Esteemed Lord, can you put your face in the middle of my hands?”

Demon Lord: “?”

Although he didn’t understand, he still did as he was asked, slowly leaning down, his face fitting perfectly in his hands, his cheeks touching the palms of his hands.

Seeing him like this, Yún Xiá’s heart softened into water, and he rubbed his face, “Hahaha, so cute! Esteemed Lord, how can you be so obedient?”

He smiled until his eyes curved, Esteemed Lord’s skin is so good!

The Demon Lord gently grasped his wrist, his palm scalding hot, and said nothing.

Yún Xiá paused, then suddenly said softly, “Esteemed Lord, can you promise me not to be angry and ignore me during these few days in the Holy City? Do you know how scary you are when you get angry?”

The Demon Lord keenly sensed something and didn’t agree immediately, “You want to make me angry?”

Yún Xiá swallowed, feeling a little guilty, but he used the best acting of his life to hold on, his eyes not wavering, looking straight at the Demon Lord.

“No, that’s not what I meant. I just think it’s rare for us to come to the Holy City once, and the Netherflower Festival is only once every five years, so we shouldn’t waste time ignoring each other.”

The Demon Lord straightened up, pulling him in front to avoid someone accidentally bumping into them, “You like the Netherflower Festival. We’ll come again in five years. Five years will pass quickly.”

Yún Xiá’s heart ached, but he showed a sly smile on his face, “How can five years pass quickly? It’s quick for you, but it’s a long time for a young man like me.”

The Demon Lord raised an eyebrow and pinched his nose, “Demon cultivators usually live for hundreds of years, and those with high cultivation bases can live for thousands. You should cultivate properly and improve your cultivation base as soon as possible, then you won’t think time passes slowly.”

Yún Xiá muttered, “Thousands of years… that’s only possible for Demon King-level figures, right? I don’t think I can do it.”

“What are you worried about? I’m here.” The Demon Lord glanced at him and pulled him forward.

Yún Xiá fell slightly behind the Demon Lord, his expression slowly turning cold.

What a wonderful sentence, “Don’t worry, I’m here.”

If possible, he also wanted to stay by the Demon Lord’s side to cultivate. If they have the chance to meet again in the future, would Esteemed Lord hate him for leaving without saying goodbye?

Oh, Yún Xiá! This sentimental melancholy isn’t you!

Don’t waste time thinking about these things! Yún Xiá patted his cheek with his other hand. Before he could pat it a second time, his hand was grabbed.

Looking up, the Demon Lord frowned slightly at him, “Why are you hitting yourself?”

Yún Xiá was startled and immediately said, “No, why would I hit myself? By the way, Esteemed Lord, what are we waiting for here?”

The Demon Lord looked at him for a while, then raised his hand and stroked his slightly reddened cheek, sighing, “You’ll know soon.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a deafening roar suddenly rang out.

Yún Xiá was shocked and immediately looked up, only to see countless lights shooting from the distant sky. Then, the lights exploded in the air, forming huge, shocking fireworks.

Each light point was incredibly brilliant, covering the entire sky.

Yún Xiá was stunned. Even in modern times, he had never seen such a magnificent fireworks display.

What surprised Yún Xiá even more was that some of the fireworks exploded in a very familiar way, the gorgeous appearance… like the ones he had made for Esteemed Lord when he was learning Flight with the Demon Lord!

He stared blankly at the fireworks, then at the Demon Lord. The Demon Lord actually avoided his gaze slightly, but quickly steadied himself and looked at Yún Xiá.

The people next to Yún Xiá were also startled at first, wondering what was happening, but when the fireworks exploded, everyone was dumbfounded, then cheered loudly.

“It’s from the direction of the Demon Palace!! This is a grand fireworks display that Esteemed Lord is giving us!!”

“It really is! And it’s coming from the top of the mountain, it must be Esteemed Lord!!! No one else would have such a grand gesture!!”

“Ahhhhhh, Esteemed Lord, may you live forever!!!”

Everyone was in a frenzy. To them, they were still too young, and many had not experienced the chaotic era, but after all, they were too close in time. They could always hear about the Esteemed Lord’s various deeds from the older generation of demons.

In their hearts, the Esteemed Lord was high above, an untouchable existence, and the Esteemed Lord rarely appeared in public.

He was an existence that could only be held in their hearts with awe.

But today, the Esteemed Lord actually gave the entire Holy City such a beautiful and magnificent fireworks display on the day of the Netherflower Festival!

At that moment, everyone felt that their hearts were incredibly close to the Esteemed Lord.

It was as if a god had descended from his high throne and personally bestowed a grand feast upon them.

Hearing their shouts, Yún Xiá said in disbelief, “This is you…”

The Demon Lord said softly, “Yes, you gave me a fireworks display, so naturally, I have to give you one too. And you’re right, the demons of the Holy City have always been under my feet, but I haven’t looked at them in a long time. So, it’s also a gift to them.”

He looked up at the sky with the excited crowd, “From now on, there will be a fireworks display in the Holy City every Netherflower Festival.”

Even though the sound of the fireworks exploding was very loud, Yún Xiá still clearly heard the Demon Lord’s voice. For some reason, looking at the Demon Lord’s profile as he looked at the fireworks with many others, his eyes were a little wet.

The Esteemed Lord seemed… more human.

He would personally come down to the Holy City to investigate various strange events, and even if he was offended, he wouldn’t do anything to those demons who offended him. He would even personally give the entire city a fireworks display.

This was the real Demon Lord, the Esteemed Lord of all demons.

Yún Xiá was proud of this and moved by it.

“Esteemed Lord, can you tell me your name?” These words came out very naturally, without Yún Xiá even thinking about it carefully.

The Demon Lord was stunned and looked back at him.

Yún Xiá saw the firelight flickering in his eyes, suddenly came back to his senses, and waved his hands repeatedly, “I, I was just saying it casually. It’s okay if you don’t want to tell me, it’s totally fine. I don’t know why I asked…”

The Demon Lord chuckled softly, “Why are you panicking? Did I say anything?”

Yún Xiá slowly calmed down. Yes, he was about to leave, so he should ask the Esteemed Lord’s name. That way, when he looked back on it in the future, he wouldn’t have to keep calling him Esteemed Lord.

“Remember the first day we came, I wanted to ask you a question? You got angry and didn’t talk to me at the time. Later, you said I could ask you when I wanted to ask.”

The Demon Lord’s eyebrows twitched, “That’s the question?”

Yún Xiá nodded, “Yes, it’s very important to me.”

The Demon Lord looked at him, his eyes narrowing slightly, “Why do I feel like you’re acting a little strange tonight?”

“Where am I acting strange? Are you thinking too much?” Yún Xiá looked at him with clear eyes.

After a long time, the Demon Lord leaned close to his ear, and Yún Xiá tensed up.

“Okay, I promise you, I won’t be angry.”

Yún Xiá was stunned, looking at him in surprise.

“Also, my name is, Mo Jun Zhou.” He said each word carefully.

Yún Xiá’s eyes slowly widened.

The bright and dazzling fireworks in the sky were still in full bloom, becoming their backdrop, the lively voices intertwined into background music, freezing this moment like a movie scene.

Yún Xiá murmured, “Mo, Jun, Zhou.”

The Demon Lord responded softly, “Yes.”

His heart suddenly began to race wildly.

Finally, the fireworks came to an end, the afterglow scattering on the ground. At the moment of the finale, the man gently kissed Yún Xiá’s lips.

Yún Xiá forgot that they were on the street, amidst the crowds, and closed his eyes, parting his lips to welcome him.

The Demon Lord was very gentle, and Yún Xiá felt as if he had been brought into another world, his whole body as if immersed in honey, his lips and body filled with the man’s aura.

His mind became increasingly dizzy, and Yún Xiá felt the man deepening the kiss, his tongue roots going numb, as if he wanted to knead him into his body.

Inadvertently opening his eyes, in his hazy vision, he suddenly saw someone in the crowd facing him, as if staring straight at him.

Yún Xiá’s chaotic mind barely cleared for a moment, wanting to get away.

But the Demon Lord bit his tongue as a punishment.

Yún Xiá was jolted awake by the bite, becoming much more sober. Before he could blush, he suddenly saw clearly the person facing him.

It was… An He?

An He’s gaze was very… strange, staring straight at him and the Demon Lord, his eyes dark and… fervent?

Completely unlike the An He he knew.

Yún Xiá felt a chill run down his spine from that gaze, the romance stirred up by the Demon Lord disappearing instantly. He pushed against the man’s chest, wanting to talk to him, but the Demon Lord’s face darkened, pressing his shoulders and disappearing from the spot.

The next moment, Yún Xiá was thrown onto a soft bed. Before he could speak, the Demon Lord leaned over and enveloped him.

Yún Xiá hadn’t reacted yet, his mind still on An He, when the Demon Lord grabbed both his hands and pressed them above his head, his burning lips against his ear, “Don’t mention others.”

Only then did Yún Xiá hear the captivating desire in his voice, drilling straight into his ears, making his waist go weak, briefly forgetting An He.

He instinctively struggled, but found that both his hands were restrained.

This posture… a bad premonition rose in his heart.

“Esteemed, Esteemed Lord… um ah!”

The Demon Lord bit his neck, not hard, but the sharp teeth brushed against his sensitive neck, bringing a feeling of itchiness and numbness.

“What did you call me?”

The man’s voice was hoarse, strands of hair sliding down from his side, falling on Yún Xiá, slowly brushing past with the man’s movements.

“Mo… Mo Jun Zhou…”

“Yes.” The Demon Lord kissed his earlobe with satisfaction, his hand running down Yún Xiá’s waist, grabbing Yún Xiá’s knee and lifting it up.

Yún Xiá was suddenly shocked, no longer caring about the Demon Lord’s actions on his neck, and quickly pulled his body upward.

“Esteemed Lord! Mo Jun Zhou, don’t!”
